Just to let all VUK HU members know, John Mills has been extremely poorly this last few months and is no longer an admin for this community. Please do contact or message any of the other administrators if you need one to one advice or support.

John has also stepped back from front line operations for VUK but is still supporting the other trustees as and when he is needed.

You can read about John in the Autumn VUK newsletter online vasculitis.org.uk/news/autu...

Thank you

Susan Mills

thank you, Susan, for letting us know. Hard to step back but hopefully gives you both time to enjoy other aspects of life when John is able to. Thinking of you and wishing you all the best.

I hope John is feeling better soon. I've only troubled the VUK Helpline twice, but it was John who answered the phone the first time. I learnt more about my condition during that chat than in years with various GPs! And it turned out John lives only a mile from where my wife grew up! Get well soon, John!

Hello a huge thank you to John. Without his help I probably wouldn't be here today! His help in sign posting me to the correct consultant to enable me to be diagnosed with my extremely rare anca negative vasculitis saved my life.! At the time I had school aged children, every year of good health is so important. Thank you to both of you!
